Thayer's Notes:

a
Capt. Brown's birthplace is from the 1910 Prism (the yearbook of the University of Maine), p29.

b
The most recent volume of the Supplements to Cullum's Register available to me (1950), which may also be the most recent volume in the public domain, does not record Capt. Brown as having died. I've been unable to discover any information as to his death.

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information.
